Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy C55 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy C55 suits buyers looking for a light, slim phone with a large display and a versatile camera setup. The main trade-off in this China-market configuration is that it has no Google Services. The phone is sold with 8 GB / 256 GB or 12 GB / 256 GB; this version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of expandable storage.

Its 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate and 1000-nit peak brightness. Overall, the display stands better than most phones of its time. The design is a highlight too: at 180 g, it is among the lightest phones of its time, and at 7.8 mm thick it is slimmer than most. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 scored 698,000 in AnTuTu v10, better than most phones launched around the same time.

The camera stands better than most phones of its time. The 50 MP camera includes optical image stabilization, alongside an 8 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro camera; there is no optical zoom. Connectivity is also better than most, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, and Dual Nano-SIM. A 5000 mAh battery and 45 W charging are typical figures for its time. With an overall NeoScore of 6.8, the Galaxy C55 is a well-rounded choice for buyers who prioritize a light design, display, and camera, and can do without Google Services in this version.
